[edit] Rivalries
Where are we getting this official rivalry stuff? I've never heard of the Rivers-St. Paul's rivalry in my life. Anyone have any ideas? Mjl0509 12:21, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- ...The Big Ten has "official rivalries;" it would truly surprise me if the ISL did too. Traditional rivalries, yes, but "official?" I've never heard of a St. Paul's-Rivers rivalry either. The others seem correct. Groton-St.Mark's (traditional) Milton-Nobles (traditional) Middlesex-St.George's (traditional) Brooks-Lawrence (similar schools, but is this a rivalry? I thought Lawrence-Groton, Brooks-GDA) Thayer-St. Sebs (similar-day schools) BB&N-Roxbury Latin (similar-day schools)... maybe St. Paul's and Rivers were the 'odd men out,' so to speak, and whoever composed the list just decided to throw them together. I'll edit this. Please fix any of my mistakes. 24.2.244.245 08:38, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
Need a reference for the following statement: "The Independent School League is the oldest Independent School athletic association in the United States."
The rivalries as they stand right now are correct. The only truly traditional ones are Middlesex-St. George's, Milton-Nobles, and Groton-St. Mark's, but the Bel Hill- R-L and St. Seb's- Bel Hill rivalries are well established as well.
